A flagellate'method of locomotion
Species name:Anisonema
AL-Museum AL-Museum
In this scene of many particles and various sizes of microbes, we can see a relatively large flagellate using an interesting method to get around. It attaches its long, trailing flagellum to an anchor (like a particle or container surface) from which it launches itself forward, pulls back, and propels itself in another direction.
